I was doing intake manifold gasket replacement because of vacuum leak near there. I ended up taking nearly all the electrical connections to get the intake manifold out. Most of the connectors found their home except for this one
Here are some more pictures.
The sensor was broken somewhere Idk where it is.. what it is..
In the wire bundle, it has cold start time switch and RT grounding point. (It's on the left side of the engine when standing towards the car)
(the bottom one is cold start time switch and the one right next to it is that one I'm having trouble with)
Please help!! I want to love my new 4runner again. Cannot wait to fire it up
Actually the knock sensor is hooked elsewhere. Thank you though
Here is the video of my engine and what I'm asking. Hopefully this is a better way to ask a question!
The passenger side connector is probably the cold start injector. Are the wires B-W and G?
On the driver's side, I only saw 2 regular injector connectors. Do you have a third? (Those connectors do not tolerate 20 years too well, so you could have a different color injector connector.) Are the wires B-R and W?
And, for me at least, the video is just about the hardest way to tell what you're asking.
What are the colors of the wires to the "mystery" connectors?
Edit: the wire you have connected to the Cold Start Time switch looks like the Cold Start Injector connector (the ferrule is distinctive). The wires to the Cold Start Injector Time Switch are (unfortunately) also B-W and G.

Oh you know what? The cold start switch that I received was a wrong part but fitted perfectly with the cold start injector so that's probably what I was confused about.
So in conclusion, the mystery connector that I was asking in the first place was actually for the cold start switch and the gray connector in the video was for one of the injectors(different color threw me off)
Haha I feel so dumb. but thank you for helping me out!
